The students of National University of Singapore under the 2nd Project Orion turned over yesterday the upgraded and improved covered gym of the Mateo Elementary School in Barangay Manguna, Cabatuan, Iloilo.
This was received by Mayor Boboy Pueyo, MES Prinicipal Ernel Cañega and PB Joven Calubia. Provincial Administrator Raul Banias also joined the turnover ceremony.
The NUS students who raised the fund for this project stayed in Barangay Manguna for two weeks and worked on the project themselves.
The Youth Expedition was facilitated by the staff from the Office of the Provincial Planning and Development Coordinator and the Office of the Local Youth Development Officer.
Last year, the NUS students also funded the construction of a Water System with Wash Area Project at Layog Elementary School in the municipality of Maasin.
